Abstract

The informatization of social life and the globalization of economy make the importance of English become increasingly prominent. So, the yearning for Chinese people to learn English is stronger and stronger. However, the purposes to learn English are different, such as for travel, for work and for interests. Of course, students have to regard it as a course to learn, but more and more students are reduced to be underachievers and unable to catch up with other students' learning pace for various reasons. This article, therefore, is willing to help the English underachievers out by some suggestions, after an underachiever's case study, based on Krashen's the affective filter hypothesis.
